Love does not fade away or "alter when it alterations finds", as the bard wrote. My mom never dated a man
after my father passed away. She was 37 when he died... Don't you still love anyone... childhood friends, pets,
cousins, that you ever loved? I know I do. Relationships are not feeling, though. Do you want a relationship
with this person? You are not alone in loving someone all your life.

Had a boyfriend in my early twenties that haunted me for 20 plus years and then last year he called me. We hooked up a few times and it was wonderful! What's even better is he's still in my life as a friend. We email almost everyday and talk at least a few times a week. He's divorced with 4 kids. He said he thought about me too all those years. I have a funny feeling that one day we'll end up together.

4 children..
is he ready and able to enter into a new relationship?
If he was, and you can handle his 4 children,
it might be better *sooner* than later..
how wonderful that you are rekindling this previous relationship.
Life is marvelous....good luck!

Yes, but I wonder if it is a yearning for 'what might have been', which of course is unknown,
and may or may not have been better than what was.
Alice is right though - the heart remembers.

I totally agree with Alice -- love does not fade away even if it might get pushed to the back of your mind when other day-to-day activities need to take priority. So glad that a person you love can come back into your life regardless of the reasons.

Love even if the other person walks out and it was really love esp if it was your first true love you never stop loving that person even if you find out after you were married to them for a period of time and they tell you after you divoriced they didn't love you for quite some time.. That hurts but i still care about and somewhere down inside i still love him we were together for almost 8 yrs total,, i think i will never love anyone else as much as i truly loved him .And i told him when we split that he never would find anyone who would ,,

Similar to Broken. I met my ex when we were 15 yrs old, dated till about age 19, then dated on and off for about 4 years, then got married at age 26. We seperated at age 40. He still loves me, and I do him, but it isn't the same for me because for me it is long over, and it is the love that the heart remembers, but the head knows it cannot be anymore.
I feel really bad for him whenever I see him though, which is seldom, because it still pains him so much.
You always have a special place for your first love, for sure. And probably for anyone who shared some firsts with you, such as first wedding, birth of children, first house.
edited to add: I still write (email now) with a man I dated when I was in Germany in 1973.

Awww this really reminds me of the movie "Love in the time of cholera" it was really good, but kind of heart wrenching at the same time. Like others have said the heart does not forget, and once you really truly love someone, I dont think that ever goes away... its like an imprint on your soul.

I am still in love with my first fiance and always will be. Met him when I was 15 years old. After we split I went on to marry and have my daughter. He came back into my life and wanted to get married but I was not divorced yet. Again we split. Last year I located him and made contact. He called me we talked he is still married to the same girl he met after the second time we split. I am very happy for him but I know he feels the same way about me because before he hung up the phone he called me by my name and said I will always love you. He will always be in my heart.
